GAETANO PESCE (1939-2024) - Lot 143
GAETANO PESCE (1939-2024) GAETANO PESCE (1939-2024) UP3 armchair in orange stretch jersey fabric over polyurethane foam (rips and stains) Armchair UP3 stretch jersey fabric over Polyurethane foam (rips and stains) H 73 x D 92 cm - W 28 3/4 x Diam. 36 in. HISTORY In 1969, Gaetano Pesce designed the 'UP' series. In this series, he broke new ground in terms of both materials and aesthetics. B and B Italia revolutionized the design of this upholstered armchair, thanks to the technique of molding large parts. The Up chair is not made from a supporting structure, but from a single block. The seat is compressed under vacuum, then welded into a hermetically sealed package. This reduces its volume to a minimum. Once you've decided where to install it, all you have to do is remove the packaging. Air enters the polyurethane foam cells, and the Up chair magically returns to its original shape. The seat is shaped like an acorn, raised by a slightly thinner stem. It features two decorative elements at the front, reminiscent of the distal end of the penis.
